Still Life with Meadow Flowers and Roses is a 1894 oil by Vincent van Gogh, a Post-Impressionism work, depicting Papaver Rhoeas, held at Kröller-Müller Museum.
This painting is a still life of a vase filled with a variety of colorful flowers, including roses and poppies. The flowers are arranged in a loose, organic way, with some of them spilling out of the vase. The background of the painting is a warm, earthy color that complements the colors of the flowers. The painting is done in a bold, expressive style, with thick brushstrokes and vivid colors. The overall effect is one of energy and movement, as if the flowers are about to burst out of the vase. The painting is also notable for its use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts between light and dark to create a sense of depth and volume.
